1 | "Tables" or "Beds" in original text? | Mark 7:4 | Morant61 | 77511 | ||
Greetings Dan! The UBS text also gives this reading a (C) rating, but that is the reading that they adopt. There are possible readings. 1) One version (not manuscript) omits the phrase entirely. 2) Most manuscripts include the entire phrase (kai kalkion kai klinon). 3) Several manuscripts (including a couple older ones like p45 and Aleph)only use the words (kai kalkion). The textual appartatus lists two possiblites to explain the different readings. 1) The words 'kai beds' could have been added to harmonize the list with Lev. 15. 2) The words could have been accidently ommited because of 'homoeoteleuton' - i.e. the skipping from one set of similar letters to another set. Personally, I would opt for the second option. It is much easier to explain why this phrase could have been accidently ommited than to explain why it would be deliberately added. Either way, the word 'table' or 'bed' is in the text of most manuscripts. As I've argued in the past, that fact alone doesn't necessarily make it the right reading though! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

2 | "Tables" or "Beds" in original text? | Mark 7:4 | disciplerami | 77538 | ||
Hold up! I have the 3rd Edition of the UBS, 1983. I see that the word KAI KLEENON is bracketed in the text and gets the C rating. That means the translation committee believes it more likely was added from the original, right? |

3 | "Tables" or "Beds" in original text? | Mark 7:4 | Searcher56 | 77542 | ||
BUT ... it is only ONE translation committee ... a second one? As already stated most manuscrtipts and lexicons contain KLEENON. I believe the reason it was omitted by the MINORITY is because they saw it forced them to say baptism should be washing. I have proven my point ... and even the Luke passage is a stronger point. Since you refuse to accept this, there is no point in continuing. |
